    mga naka park esp kung dikitan. para hindi mausukan / marumihan

    nope, because automotive airconditioning systems have a small vent that is permanently open. kahit na naka-recirculate ang setting there will always be enough make up air sucked from the outside to keep the oxygen level inside the vehicle within normal levels (21% O2).

    the vent mode in a vehicle is recommended only for the ff. instances:
    1. during start up, to vent the warm air inside the vehicle and let cooler air in so as not to overload the ac.
    2. when it is raining and you choose to turn off the aircon with the windows close, set it in vent and run only the fan. this prevents mist from forming inside.
    3. to get rid of foul smell like you have fish in the trunk or if you farted!

    incidentally, even domestic window type ac units have a permanently open vent. there is a small hole that also serves as the drain channel for the evaporator, and this is where make up air is sucked by the fan.

    this however is not true for split type building/domestic airconditoners. split type ac units do not have a vent since the evaporator is not connected to the outside. O2 levels in a room cooled by split type ac units and where the doors are closed most of the time can go down to dangerous levels. we found this out first hand when one of the guys here on the rig felt dizzy when staying in an office that is cooled solely by a split type ac. when we measured the O2 level it was only 9%, or only 42% of normal.

    Mali pala yung thread na ni-link ko. Eto pala ang mas bago: http://tsikot.yehey.com/forums/showthread.php?t=26900

    Sinusunod ko yung "park facing the wall" kung may nakasulat. I suppose they have their reasons why they want it that way, but since I am using their parking facility, not mine, I will just follow what they want.

    Yari naman yung front bumper/lip the rear is usually higher than the front. Makes more sense to park backwards, makakaatras ka pa dahil mas may clearance. If your car is lowered and you park facing the wall, your best bet is nakalabas yung pwet nung sasakyan. That obstructs traffic kapag makitid yung lugar.

    yes, i do it all the time kahit walang sign

    siguro as a courtesy na rin to the owner of the parking, i think one of the reason they want to implement this is para hindi mangitim yung wall nila gawa ng smoke from the muffler

    I usually follow the sign unless very inconvenient while parking.

    Pero sa bahay, Park facing the wall ako parati para yung usok nang tambutso hindi mag-ma-mark sa wall nang bahay.
